FORTUNE 500 – USA

This project for a Fortune 500 company demanded unique designs. For the dining room: an overscaled double-tiered 20 foot circle of frosted acrylic, lit from within by LED with a stunning veil of 300 crystal spheres seeded with LED lamps in the lower tier. For one of the meeting rooms, a converted rustic old building: organic “bird’s nests” crafted from brass and steel rods, textured with an antique bronze finish. In the main entry, a 4ft acrylic cube centered in 6ft of floating sheer organza, suspended from a perfectly square fixture. The stairway to the Fitness Center is a geometric set of LED illuminated acrylic tubes. The machined aluminum hardware was custom-designed to maintain a mechanical air for the installation. 5ft-diameter, drum-shaped pendants with minimalist satin nickel trim are arranged in public circulation spaces.

BARCLAYS CENTER – Brooklyn, NY

The Barclays Center is more than a $4.9 billion sports arena; it’s the crown jewel of a resurgent Brooklyn that now rivals Manhattan as a cultural center. The entire complex features distinctive touches. The grand lobby is punctuated with mirrored translucent cylinders over frosted acrylic and open style T-5 lamping. The celebrity clientele at the VIP Club are lit by suspended aluminum cylinder downlights raked at a dramatic angle. The ceiling of the 40/40 Club adds sharp geometry with triangles of dimming fluorescents, echoing a baseball diamond. The club gets its name from the baseball term describing the exclusive group of Major League Baseball players who‘ve achieved the rare individual feat of notching 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a single season.

TOWER 45 – NYC

A massive light sculpture — and a unique feat of technology and engineering. The atrium at Tower 45 features a tumbling pair of sculptural rectangles. Each is painstakingly crafted of LED lighted frames with a white acrylic diffuser and bronze finish. Each had to be lifted and placed until we obtained the perfect balance. The lobby is graced with its own unique light sculpture: a set of carefully stacked rectangles of indoor LEDs set under a frosted acrylic diffuser with an antique bronze finish. Each of these light sculptures is a testament to possibility and the designer’s imagination.
